I was super excited for the september glossy box and i wasn't disappointed! This is what i got:

1. B.Kamins lip balm spf 20. I really liked this lip balm it was very moisturizing.

2. B.Kamins maple body lotion. I haven't tried this yet.

3. Dove cleartone deodorant. This was a bonus and have already received a sample of this in the mail and really enjoyed it :)

4. Wella professionals mirror polish shine serum. I really really liked this. It made my hair super soft and not frizzy. It was my second favourite item this month.

Then finally the star of the box

5.The NYX cosmetics crimson amulet collection limited edition. When i seen this i nearly squealed with excitement. I love it. It comes with so many amazing eye shadows, 5 blushes, a highlight and a liquid eyeliner and eyeshadow base!

This is definetly my favourite glossybox so far they seem to be getting better :)

Last week I went to Shoppers and picked up a couple Balea Facemasks to try out because I haven't tried them before. So i used one the night I bought it And it went on feeling really nice and it was ok it had kind of a tingling sensation. So i left it on for about 10 minutes then i took it off and my face was a little pink and splotchy, but it did shrink my pores.

Then Just the other night i decided to try the other one i bought. (I'm Sorry i don't remember the kinds.) So i put it on and it felt nice and cooling then about a minute later it started really burning like seriously burning. I thought that might subside so i left it on for another few minutes but it just didn't get any better. So i didnt even leave it on for 5 minutes but i had to take it off, When i took it off my face looked like I had a sunburn! It didn't burn anymore but it stayed red for a few hours. But I did notice it shrunk my pores! So I don't know if thats how its supposed to feel or if i was allergic to something in it.

So I really don't think ill be trying out the masks again. So If anyone has any suggestions on good inexpensive face masks let me know! And if this happened to anyone else also let me know!
